Autism spectrum and hobby

[Ripmany]

From what you know do people Autism take part in hobby more than general population.

I was last tested in 1988 for autism I has autism tendencies but did not meet criteria. Does anyone know I could possibly a level 1.

Not universally.

There is no consistent evidence that men with autism as a group have a stronger sex drive than neurotypical men.

Here’s what research and clinical observations actually show:

Sex drive varies widely among autistic men. Autism is highly heterogeneous, and so is sexuality. Studies show that autistic men may fall anywhere along the spectrum:
Some have higher-than-average libido
Some have average libido
Some have lower libido, including a higher rate of asexual identification compared to the general population

Autistic men show more variability, not a single pattern.

Sounds like somebody has gotten into the Tylenol...

Autism has no effect on libido of male or female but it big effect effect to get Friends, making the hobby simple. How I see if that any to do with I see it in a documentary about autism.

It's true that asexuality is more common among autistic men than among neurotypical men.

That being said, among heterosexual autistic men, his sex drive has very little to do with whether he participates in the escort hobby.

I'm a straight autistic man whose sex drive is probably lower than most neurotypical men my age. Yet I get with escorts. Why? Because lower sex drive doesn't mean nonexistent. I still have the urge to get laid; just not as frequently as most 34 year old men. And as for why specifically I go the escort route to get laid: As a result of autism, there's pretty much no other way I'm capable of getting laid.

The extreme difficulty autistic men have in getting a woman means I'd venture to guess straight autistic men utilize escorts at a higher rate than straight neurotypical men
